help decide on price

[89mjpioneer]

I picked up this mj a few weeks ago for $500. I got it because I wanted the plow. It had blown brake lines and no exhaust. I replaced the brake lines and threw on a muffler but its still loud. Its got a cracked exhaust manifold.

Its got solid rockers, above the rear flares are rotting, and the driverside floor is soft. After the winter I'm pulling the plow and selling the truck but I'm not shure what to ask . So whats a good price to start with?

engine? trans? gears? rear axle? interior?

 

we need to know these things to give it a price...it's not all body that makes the truck lol.

Sorry I completly forgot. Its a 89, short bed, auto on column, d35, d30, 3.55, 4.0, tan interior, bench seat, and 196k miles. It needs a headliner and the interior isnt in to bad of shape.

Think of it this way. You bought it for the plow, so how much would just the plow have cost you? Subtrack that price from what you paid and then add the cost of what you have done to it. That will give you roughly what you need to break even in the deal.

 

Far as I'm concern, breakin even with an MJ is good. :thumbsup:

 

Or you can throw all that out and post it for sale as a RARE Jeep and try to get some rediculious price for it as you watch it slowly rust in your driveway.

 

If it was me, I'd start at $500 OBO.

I wouldn't be willing to pay more than $500 for it, but you may find someone that would give a little more. If it was mine, I would start it at maybe $800 and take offers. Being up North...they tend to sell for a little more than down here.
